Why you so hard on yourself
Why you so hard on yourself
Why are you so critical
Self love is so difficult
You're a twisted individual
Why you so hard on yourself
Why you so hard on yourself
No one sees all the flaws but yourself
They love you as you are
Tell me
Why that's so hard to accept
You're never enough
And you won't ask for help
You won't open up
For fear you'll be dealt
A bad hand
Can it be that everyone ain't bluffin' like you think
That life is life and not a game of strategy
That you don't always have to be
On alert
And actually
Others would be happily
Pourin' into you
Would acceptin' be so challengin'
This keeping score that's happenin'
In your mind
Might be detached from reality
If you had nothing to offer
They'd keep giving
Ain't it crazy
Love ain't predicated
On expectations
Ain't it crazy
Just reach out
And maybe they'd be waiting
Just reach out
Why you so hard on yourself
Why you so hard on yourself
Why are you so critical
Self love is so difficult
You're a twisted individual
Why you so hard on yourself
Why you so hard on yourself
No one sees all the flaws but yourself
They love you as you are
Tell me
Why that's so hard to accept
So everyone that's ever shown you love was wrong
Your success
Was all luck of the draw
And only you can see that you're a fraud
That you get weak
Fatigued but you can't sleep
Too drained to even speak
Braindead, gone for weeks
You did it again
Went too hard
Hit your limit again
Negative thoughts make their tenements in
Your mind
They're your tenants again
Why you so hard on yourself
Why you so hard on yourself
Why are you so critical
Self love is so difficult
You're a twisted individual
Why you so hard on yourself
Why you so hard on yourself
No one sees all the flaws but yourself
They love you as you are
Tell me
Why that's so hard to accept
